Here they are called rotary cutters. We have had 5 different brands, and the Brown is by far clearly the best you can buy- expensive but the most durable and reliable we have had

I've never heard a BSM called a rotary cutter...

These days, I use my rotary cutter a lot more than my BSM.

Doesn't the engine turn the blade by rotating a drive wheel?
Doesn't it cut by rotary action?
When you say "rotary cutter", many people don't know which type of machine you are talking about.
Most understand what type a brush hog is.

Who cares....life is too short.

And if the crescent wrench strips off a bolt....sometimes you need a sawzall. But that's why I like Allen wrenches/bolts. Can't bugger them with a Crescent wrench. Channel locks maybe?

LD1 made a clever sentence with tools brand names instead of actual names and I understood every single bit of it and that prove his point.
I got the part about the different tool names, but I guess I have never had anyone ask me for an adjustable wrench or a reciprocating saw or hex head socket or slip joint pliers, just used to the slang terms I guess, but I think most people are.

I know I'm being picky but I have an issue with folks calling a rotary mower a Bush Hog. Bush Hog is a brand name just as John Deere, Ford, Dodge, etc.
Home - Bush Hog This is the Bush Hog website note they even call them rotary cutters. I know it may be a hard habit to break but could we learn to call them rotary cutters unless of course you are referring to the Bush Hog brand.
The mark of a good brand name is that it becomes used as a generic name for the kind of product it is. Bush Hog has achieved that. So has Kleenex, and, to a lesser extent, Coke, Frigidaire, Bendix and a few other brands.

Get over it! It was originally called a Stock Cutter for chopping Corn Stalks prior to plowing in my area of Ontario.

NO. Stock Cutter or Bush Hog. You're welcome.
